About the Book To write a dictionary of religion is like climbing a high mountain and looking down upon all the kingdoms of the earth. The climber sees so much and so little; the view is everywhere changing and deceptive; mists twine and twist about the hills; the sunlight dazzles; great clouds roll up from distant valleys. The aim of this book is to provide the student of religion as well as the general reader with a handy volume that is up to date, comprehensive and comparative in treatment. Where-ever it seemed necessary; reference has been given to useful books on the subjects treated.
